Title: Heat treatment of metal castings and integrated sand reclamation
Inventor: CRAFTON SCOTT P
IPC: B22D29/00
Filed: 1993-01-27
Granted: 1997-05-08
Abstract: The method and apparatus for reclaiming substantially pure sand from a heat treating furnace (19); wherein a casting with sand core and/or sand mold, comprising sand bound by a combustible binder, attached thereto is introduced into the heat treating furnace (19); or, wherein portions of sand core and/or sand mold that are not attached to a casting are introduced into the heat treating furnace (19). Wherein, the reclaiming within the furnace (19) is carried out, in part, by a fluidizer (40) that promotes binder combustion by one or more processes of agitating, heating, and oxygenating. Wherein the characteristics of the reclaimed sand (25) are selectively controlled by controlling the dwell time of the sand (25) within the heat treating furnace (19).

Title: Apparatus and method for ejecting sample well trays
Inventor: SHIN HON S
IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 2001-02-01
Granted: 2003-10-02
Abstract: The invention includes a heating apparatus for biological samples. The heating apparatus of the present invention includes a cover, a sample block having a plurality of openings in a top portion thereof for receiving a sample well tray having a plurality of sample wells, and an urging mechanism. The urging mechanism is positionable between the sample block and the sample well tray to urge the sample well tray away from the sample block when the cover is moved from a closed position toward an open position. The cover imparts a downward force on the top of the sample well tray to press the sample wells into the openings of the sample block when the heated cover is moved toward a closed position. The urging mechanism imparts an upward force on the sample well tray. The downward force imparted by the heated cover is sufficient to retain the sample well tray against the sample block when the cover is in the closed position.

Title: A hydrogel composition and methods of making it
Inventor: TRUTER PATRICIA-ANN
IPC: C08L35/08
Filed: 1993-08-11
Granted: 1995-12-07
Abstract: The invention provides translucent, water-insoluble hydrogel compositions and methods of making them. The hydrogel compositions comprise a polyvinyl alcohol polymer and a complexing agent which are physically crosslinked to form a semi-crystalline polyvinyl alcohol-complexing agent polymer complex. The hydrogel compositions may be prepared by:   (i) combining a polyvinyl alcohol polymer with a suitable aprotic solvent; (ii) Adding a complexing agent to (i) to form a water soluble complex with the polyvinyl alcohol polymer; and (iii) Allowing the polyvinyl alcohol polymer and the complexing agent to form a water-insoluble, semi-crystalline structure.   The formation of the semi-crystalline structure is assisted by freezing the polyvinyl alcohol/complexing agent/polar aprotic solvent mixture. The hydrogel compositions are translucent or transparent. They exhibit relatively high stress strength and low oxygen permeability. They are particularly suitable for use as wound dressings for skin wounds, especially burn wounds. For such applications, therapeutic additives, e.g. allantoin, may advantageously be included in the hydrogel compositions.

Title: Method of speech recognition
IPC: G10L15/07
Filed: 1990-09-17
Granted: 1993-08-19
Abstract: A method of this type is intended to be suitable for the recognition of individual words as well as continuous speech. It is to be characterised by robust word pattern recognition in the face of incorrect syllable segmentation and variable diction, e.g. when syllables are slurred. It must also enable fast adaptation of the system to a new speaker and an essentially unlimited generation and extension of the vocabulary from written text without explicit system training through pronunciation. An approximately real-time recognition of words and word sequences should also be possible even with very extensive vocabularies. Known methods of speech recognition require a highly expensive training procedure. Furthermore, an unmanageable flow of hypotheses is generated with continuous speech and a relatively large vocabulary, and even with medium-sized vocabularies. 
<??>According to the invention, the extracted feature vectors are segmented and classified into a set of hypotheses comprising syllable-oriented word sub-units with the aid of a word sub-unit inventory. A word hypothesis set, which is subjected to syntactic analysis in order to identify the spoken phrase, is generated from the hypothesis set by means of a three-dimensional, time-dynamic comparison with diction variants from a reference pattern vocabulary.
